Bumper soccer

On Tuesday we started our classes at ten o'clock as always. 

We made a break and them we continued the class. After the lunch we played bumper soccer. It is a game which people play football inside big plastic balls. We had a lot of fun. The objective of the game was trying to score in the goal by crashing other players with the plastic balls. 

After that we returned home with our host families.

Jaunting cars

Today 25 more students came to the school. We welcomed them to it. When they were doing their test for knowing in what class they were going to be in,  the rest of us were enjoying the morning singing and doing some activities. After that, we started with our diary classes for improving our English. 

At 11:15 we had our break and then we kept going with the lessons. 

At 13:00 we had lunch and the monitors explained to us again the rules for the new students.

At 2 o'clock we left the school and we went to take the jaunting cars. We went through the National Park. 

There we saw the lakes, a monastery and a castle. On the way to school we stopped in the outlet shopping centre. After that we arrived to school, and our families picked us up. 

It was a very nice day.

Swimming pool

On Friday we woke up as always and we had our breakfast. We went to school at 10 o'clock. We did some lessons before the break. When we finished our lessons we played games like pictionary and hangman before having lunch.

We ate our lunch together and we liked them so much. After lunch we played a game called "The Woolf". 

At 2 o'clock we left the school and we went walking to the swimming pool. We played waterpolo and volleyball there, it was great fun. 

At 15:30 we had a shower and then we returned to the school. We stopped in the outlet shopping centre and most of us got a hot chocolate.After that we arrived to school, and we returned with our families. It was a very long day.

Scavenger hunt

This morning we started class at 10:00 as all days and did some work to improve our english. At 11, we had a break and after that we continued with our english class. 

At lunch time we ate the sandwiches that our families had made for us in the morning. Then the teachers explained to us what our  afternoon activities would be. 

At 2 pm, we finished having lunch and we started the scavenger hunt. We were divided in three different teams of 5 people. Each team had 20€ and a list of different items we had to buy. We also had a sheet with 25 questions about killarneys history. The team who bought better items and had the most number of correct answers were the winners. The winners kept all his items, and collected the other teams items too. 

After that, each pupil went home and enjoyed a lovely evening with their host family.

Candles

Today we had breakfast with our families and then in class we did writing, listening and speaking games. 

After lunch, we played a game called "The Wolf". It was funny!

In the afternoon, everybody makes their own candle. First of all, we decoreted our glasses with coulour pens. Second, we put wax into our glasses and finally we covered the candle. The activity was awesome!

The last activity that we did today was a makeover! When we finished we took some photos that you can see in this blog! 

Hugs!

Tour of Killarney

On Tuesday we woke up and we had breakfast with the family. Later we went to school at 10 o'clock to start  classes. We learned a lot of food vocabulary, we did some speaking and finally we did a little competition guessing diferent words. It was very fun!

After classes, we went to have lunch. In general we think that Irish food it's delicious. 

At 2:00pm we went to the centre of killarney and then we went to a outlet shopping center to keep a train.
After that we went on the train and we did a tour of Killarney and we saw the castle, lakes... Later we went to Primark and to poundland and we bought some things. And finally we went with our family.

It was a great day!

First impressions and cinema

Yesterday we met our families. Then we went to their houses and packed off our baggage. At 6 o'clock, more or less, we had dinner, and it was very strange because we usually eat at nine. After dinner we spent time with the family and then we went to bed.

This morning we woke up at 8 o'clock and we have been doing english classes until 13:00. After that, we had lunch and later we went to the cinema to watch a movie called "The minions".

We think that the families are very nice and lovely. We feel like home!
